Honey Don’t Leave L.A. – James Taylor lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤

Hold on

That limousine
In which you just made the scene
Suits you to a T
All let you want to be
Is somebody that don’t never want nothin’

That big château
Where you wanna go
In the south of France
Going to end our big romance
Don’t you do it

Honey, don’t leave L.A., don’t, don’t, don’t
That Riviera is so far away
I’m begging youm s’il vous plaît
They don’t know nothing down in St. Tropez
Same old baby, mama don’t you leave L.A.

I heard it said
That you had it made
With your movie star
Oh how right you are
If that’s really ’bout the best you can do bitch, come on

You moved my soul
So I played the role
Of your back door man
Now I can’t really complain
‘Cause I love you

Mama, don’t leave L.A., don’t, don’t, don’t
That Riviera is so far away
I’m begging you, s’il vous plaît
They don’t know nothing down in St. Tropez, très Beauvais
Mama don’t ya leave L.A.

No
Mama, don’t you drop out of sight on me, now, no
That Riviera’s so far away
Begging you s’il vous plaît
They don’t know nothing down in St. Tropez
I said babe
Mama, don’t you leave
Baby, don’t you leave L.A., oh no

Brand new song, it’s called, “Bartender’s Blues”
Or, or, “I need a honky tonk angel to hold me tight
And keep me from drifting away”
